According to TMZ, Axl Rose and his ex-roadie Chris Pitman have finally reached a settlement in their ongoing legal battle.

As we previously reported, Pitman sued Rose a few months ago after he failed to pay $163K worth of services in 2012. Per the roadie's allegations, the rocker promised to give Chris the dough for his services once he had more money.

Now that Guns N' Roses is doing REALLY well these days thanks to a reunion tour, it's safe to say Axl has more than enough cash to reimburse his old pal. In fact, the band's concerts rakes in about $4 million each.

As for the settlement, the official terms of the agreement remain undisclosed. Sources close to the situation say the amount is less than Pitman's proposed amount of 163K.

Per the legal docs, Chris agreed to work with a struggling Rose for FREE until he regained his financial bearings. The two allegedly came to an agreement for the Guns N' Roses frontman to pay the $125K bill in 2012, a deal which was cemented by a promissory note. A promissory note is essentially a legal document ensuring payment.

Well, 2012 is long gone and the ex-employee still hasn't seen a dime. Chris is now seeking the original sum plus interest, which is how he came up with the $165K figure.

Now that Mr. Rose is financially well off following his reunion tour, C.P. argues there's no reason for his former boss to dodge the issue. In fact, Axl has already made $100 million off the tour.
